Mathematically it seems a nerf unless at relic 7/8 ? Or am I missing something ?

3x massive = 300k damage
Vs
2x massive = 200k damage +
At relic 7 - 7x7 = 49 % of 200k is 98k = 298k
At relic 8 - 8x7 = 56 % og 200k is 112k = 312k

So she's nerfed unless you have her at relic 7 and she's buffed at relic 8 ?

If you don't have your GL at R7 literally when you unlock them, you're not playing this game right, tbh.

It's not like you instantly unlock a GL after finishing the requirements. There's all of that ticket farming.
When I was ticket farming for Rey?
I farmed up all of the mats to take her immediately to R7.

I'm completely F2P, and not even by choice, so none of that "claiming F2P but actually spend $5 here and there".

There's some stuff that's warranted as a complaint... then there's this.
Like really, you're going to take that long and invest that much into unlocking a GL, and you're not going to max them out? I understand R8+, particularly if you're not in a C.pit guild, but R7? I can count the number of non-launch-week GLs I've seen below R7 on one hand. It's not like you're even in a position to claim you can't get R7 chars, considering every GL to date has required multiple.

Sorry to say, this is not a nerf, but actually a good change.

Her whirlwind would have been stale and increasingly useless over time (think of pilotless ships). Having it scale with her relic level allows it to stay relevant and gives a better ROI on investment into her.

So no, there not a single reason not to have GLs at r7, except you're doing it wrong.

What has this got to do with FTP?

It's significantly harder to get to relic 7/8 unless you use the magic credit card...
